For weeks now, Julian Assange and his group of hackers, WikiLeaks, have been promising that they would release devastating information which could wind up tilting the election toward Donald Trump on Tuesday, October 3. But yesterday when Assange appeared, his explosion and potential “October surprise” turned out to be little more than a dud.
Sunday, Trump acolyte and advisor Roger Stone posted this on Sunday:

Wednesday? Uh, no. Matter of fact, Assange came forward yesterday and announced:
“There’s been a lot of misquoting of me and Wikileaks publications.”
The next sound that was heard around the country was of the air suddenly being expelled from the balloons of Trump supporters. They took their anger to Twitter, and it was both hilarious and pathetic to see:
Hillary is cackling and Assange got a big check. I wonder if it will be delivered by drone? #wikirolled #Octobersurprise

Nutjob conspiracy theorist Alex Jones lost the tiny shred of a brain he has and fumed:
“You said it would get her indicted!” he fumed in a video released shortly after Assange’s media event ended. “You kept hyping that it was coming out at any time! Then you told sources that I’ve talked to that it was coming out today and it would not be disappointing. And instead, you released… nothing!”
Wow, all these Trump supporters got duped by a liar who says one thing and then does the opposite. You’d think they’d be used to that by now.
